Night #136 - Real, Fake, and Misplaced - Battle of the Smithsonian

Part of this one was actually filmed on location, so there are cases of what you see being exactly what you get. However, giant octopus as an actual creature does not exist (there is a giant squid, however). I know a good deal less about what's really in the Smithsonian archives (it was never explicitly discussed in the commentary) but I can say this: the Gate of Kahmunrah does not exist, I have my doubts about there being a security guard named Brandon but pronounced Brundon, but it could happen, and this goes for both movies: the actual waxworks do not look like the actors set to play them. The waxworks used in the film were modeled off the actors in order to lend credence to the idea of them coming to life and actually looking like that. (Reasons for not doing the same for Dexter remain elusive.)

As far as everything else goes, if anyone in the audience has a take on the matte

Next on "For the Love of Night at the Museum": National Treasure movie night

Countdown: 237 Days to NATM 3.
